Had kind of a rainy week, but May is here, and pastures are green. #grownostr #beef #getoutside #regenerative #ranching #farmstr
In other news, I'm going outside. I have poly-wire to roll up. image #grownostr #getoutside #ranching #grazing

Good weekend to go outside. image My pond is full again after last year's drought, and grass is growing. I hope it stays this green all year. Frost River haversack Ka-Bar Becker BK-10 #grownostr #getoutside #edcstr #knifestr
Morel season is here. image Went out this weekend and ended up finding a couple dozen. Brought along a basic haversack kit including water, knife, possibles pouch, and cordage. image #grownostr #knifestr #foodsovereignty

My Monday started grey and rainy, but then the sun came out, and I got the cattle moved onto some fresh grass. image #grownostr #regenerative #beef #farmstr
Yay! Stuff breaking. image Just noticed this concrete cattle waterer was overflowing. I haven't been in this paddock for about two months, so I have no idea how long it's been running. Had to dig to the shut-off valve to turn it off. image Luckily, it's not a broken pipe. It seems to just be the float valve has failed. I'll try to replace it next week. #grownostr #farmstr #proofofwork

Fed my last bale of hay this evening. That means grazing season starts tomorrow. image The grass has just started growing. I would have liked to have another week worth of hay, but I do have one pasture with enough grass to graze now. That should buy enough time to let the other pastures grow some more. Hopefully no drought this year. #grownostr #beef #regenerative #proofofwork #tractor
Made myself this simple little table from a solid slab of ash. image Slab is a cut off from a large countertop or something that we did a few years ago at the sawmill, and it found it's way home with me after a much needed shop decluttering. It's about 20 by 36 inches. Legs came from Amazon. #grownostr #woodworking #proofofwork
Today at the fiat job. image Delivered these cypress timber chairs we made to Top of the Rock golf course in Branson, Missouri. image "Forest to finish" We cut the trees, milled the logs, assembled and stained the chairs (we did outsource the cushions). #grownostr #proofofwork #sawmill #woodworking
Productive Saturday. Cleaned out the deep bedding from the chicken house, and filled the compost bin. image Then, broke open last year's compost pile and topped up all the planting containers. #grownostr #proofofwork #homesteading
New tenants in the barn. Yesterday, my boy picked out his show animals for this year. Two lambs and one goat. #grownostr #foodsovereignty #homesteading
I have a confession to make, Nostr frens. I attended a conference at the state capitol Monday and Tuesday, and I did not book a hotel room for Monday night. Instead of paying $136 for a room, I went to a nearby conservation area and hammock camped for free. Then I bought myself $136 worth of more Bitcoin. I do not regret my decision. Of course, I could easily afford to pay for a room, but it was a beautiful night to be in the woods, my hammock was comfortable, and fiat-world hotel rooms are boring and not worth exchanging my time and labor for. If you really want to stack sats, there is always a way. #bitcoin #generationalwealth #lowtimepreference
Temperature went down from 79° F yesterday to 20° today. Bitcoin went up from 56k to 61k. Conditions change. That's why I like to be prepared. image Case Sod Buster Jr Zippo lighter Maratac AAA flashlight Leather wallet Keys and Paracord #grownostr #edcstr #knifestr #zippo #proofofwork
